    If you ride on the track, the weight color will not matter because you have to cover the weights with duct tape… black duct tape of course.

    That’s a good rule of thumb as most assume that the heaviest part of the rim/wheel is at the stem. Such is not always the case however. My new OEM Vitpilen wheels came marked with a decal on the heavy part of the rim while indicating the deviation weight. A wheel balancer can help you achieve...

    Harbor freight has tire balancers. They make use of skateboard bearings and do very well with an upgrade to Bones China red 608z bearings. all it takes is an oven and a freezer to facilitate the bearing swap.

    I agree that the S21’s are worth getting again For street riding. I go with Pirelli Diablo Super Corsas on the track though… very forgiving and predictable for that environment.

    Max RPM?

    K&N gauze type air filters are great if you enjoy cleaning them all the time. Think about it, with all the competition between manufacturers looking for performance gains, if the gauze-type filter was an overall benefi, you can bet your a$$ they would be OEM.

    Thanks, but kinda running off the rails. Of course I have adjusted the shift lever correctly. I made no mention of a shift shaft or star, so info & chart overload there. Continued riding on the bike and more miles is improving the easy shift function. Ride more & keyboard less. Cheers!

    Thanks for the feedback. I noticed that when adjusting the shift lever on the Norden 901 that the alignment of the external shift sensors become off-centered. Just gotta read up in the manual about best practice for realigning those shift sensors… as the shifting was perfect before I adjusted...
